We hear your heartfelt request for wisdom in your relationships, and we stand with you in seeking God’s guidance in this area. The Bible tells us in James 1:5, *"But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him."* We join you in asking the Lord to pour out His wisdom upon you, that you may walk in a way that honors Him in all your interactions with others.
Wisdom in relationships begins with a foundation in Christ. Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us, *"Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."* If your relationships are not rooted in a pursuit of God’s will, they may lead you astray. We encourage you to examine whether your connections are centered on Christ or on worldly desires. Are you seeking a godly spouse, or are you simply looking for companionship without the commitment of marriage? The Bible calls us to pursue relationships that reflect His design—marriage between one man and one woman, entered into with a covenant before God.
If you are currently in a relationship that does not align with biblical principles—whether it involves premarital intimacy, an unequally yoked partnership, or any other compromise—we must rebuke that in Jesus’ name. The Lord calls us to holiness, and He provides the strength to walk in it. 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 warns, *"Flee sexual immorality! ‘Every sin that a man does is outside the body,’ but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s."* If there is any unrepentant sin in your relationships, we urge you to turn from it and seek the Lord’s forgiveness and restoration.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, asking for Your wisdom to fill this dear one’s life. Lord, Your Word says that wisdom is more precious than rubies, and we ask that You grant them discernment in every relationship. Help them to see others through Your eyes and to walk in a way that brings glory to Your name. Father, if there is any area in their relationships that does not align with Your will, reveal it to them. Give them the courage to turn from sin and the strength to pursue holiness. We pray for godly friendships and, if it is Your will, a marriage that honors You—a union between a man and a woman who both love and serve You with all their hearts. Protect them from temptation and guide their steps according to Your Word. May they grow in wisdom, in love, and in the knowledge of Christ, who is the foundation of all true relationships. We ask all these things in the powerful name of Jesus, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen.
We encourage you to immerse yourself in Scripture, for it is there that you will find the wisdom you seek. Spend time in prayer, not just asking for wisdom, but listening for the Holy Spirit’s guidance. Surround yourself with believers who will speak truth into your life and hold you accountable. And remember, the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10). When your heart is fully surrendered to Him, He will direct your paths.
